      Stan Lee said it hundreds of times, his success was due to paying attention to his readers, he said that for a comic to be successful he had to amaze, surprise and excite his readers, he had to leave them with their mouths open waiting for the next issue , Currently the comics are dedicated to politically correct propaganda, we open a comic and we find the drama of a character who has sentimental problems with his transsexual partner and this in turn gives a speech about inclusiveness and acceptance of minorities, what happened to the action, fights and heroism? it is simply too heteropatriarchal.

I mean they killed off all the interesting characters in Endgame, most people have lost interest ever since; especially with the woke push and the gender swap stuff. Like Nataly Portman couldn't even hold the movie prop XD 'Thor love and thunder'... is it gonna be a rom com now?! 80%+ tuned out when the Falcon and the winter soldier had their little BLM moment, Batwoman is in the toilet, as is superwoman, that has taken Louis and Clark with them as superwoman messed up their viewership as well, Wonder Woman's last movie was a complete disaster and the Eternals trailer is laughed off the internet.

      As for that heavy metal issue I think everybody just needs to calm down now why do understand that some fans don't like a new body armor I personally think was okay does it really matter what she's wearing that's not really an issue I think the issue is how the editor on Facebook or Twitter handle that backlash I'm one of those people that says that if you don't like certain days in comic books manga or anime nobody's forcing you to read or watch them you're free to love or hate it as you please I don't have an issue with that new body armor this is for story purposes I said in order haters and go for it and if you don't agree with some other fans you can either ignore them or try to reach a compromise I don't care about what how sexy a character looks or how the character looks in general I only care about the character and self in the story that was most important and I feel like some people are not willing to see that I also feel like people on social media or complain too much

    Funnily enough, it was Heavy Metal which was one of the first to teach me not to objectify women. Of course as a young lad all you saw at first was Taarna and how hot and sexy she was. Then you read, and you learn about her, about the cruel world she lives in. Then you learn to look past the all the flesh and it stops becoming sexual, It's just part of her world, since men are on display just as much as she was. She is just a badass female character. And the movie was amazing for it's time. If we are talking about direction and art, heck it's still an amazing movie today.

They tried making a TV show, Metal Hurlant, harking back to the HM magazines and it was pretty good. Nowhere as good as the OG material so it flopped.
      Great writing that made you think and stunning visuals, that's what drew me into comics as a kid and what made me drop them some years ago. I could see the writing on the wall evem back then. I would not pick up a modern comic today unless I ran out of toilet paper.

    Anime and manga makes many people human. Anime and manga save the world. Engaging stories, likable characters, pleasing visuals, and nice sound. Japan makes characters serious and/or cute as possible and enjoyable as possible. Personality, skill, and purpose that relates to people. America makes characters fat and/or ugly as possible and disrespectful as possible. Politically preaching and bullying offends people. Anime and manga need to be appreciated as art forms like music and others, not as political nor marketing tools. Art is what makes people human. Art is a creative expression and freedom of speech. Politics is full of hypocrisy. People are allowed to have a taste for what they like. That is what I mean when I said art makes people human. Liking rock music makes people human too. A lot of us love rock music too. The creators and animators deserve better pay as always. $2,000+ a month should be the minimum-the studios will get their money from sales.

    Hilarious. Heavy Metal was about not conforming. It's was 'grown up' in a market dominated by books for a younger audience.

Who are they kidding? It's like making a reboot of Conan and have the barbarians fight in full armor and formations, since its more realistic. Like, who cares? News flash, not EVERYTHING has to be realistic, it just has to be consistent to be good.
